Weekly Coding • 2025-09-08

It's Monday on the calendar, and it's time for my weekly report from last week.

💻 LeetCode

In my previous post, I mentioned wanting to reach problem 140 to 150, and I succeeded... albeit late. Last week, I reached problem 150, but then I encountered a surprise: some LeetCode problems are paid . You need to pay for access to certain problems, which was news to me. I thought only the solutions were behind a Premium subscription. After realizing this, my motivation to keep solving problems decreased significantly. As a perfectionist, I won't be able to say I've completed all problems up to problem N anymore. I'll have completed all problems except for the paid ones 🥴 The feeling is different.

⚙️ Linux Setup

This week, I plan to set up Linux again on two laptops:

• 16GB RAM + 8 cores
• 24GB RAM + 4 cores

I've already installed Linux on the first one. Now, I'm going to install Kubuntu 25 on the second with all necessary programs for my paid work... There are a lot of these: Docker, Azure, Intellij, GitFork, MongoDB, MongoBooster, Insomnia, Microsoft Teams, Outlook, VSCode, Kubernetes Lens, and more. Let's see how long it takes. The ideal solution would be to merge these two laptops into one with a powerful processor and 24GB of RAM. However, this is impossible because the memory on powerful processors is soldered.
